The protesters were detained following a sit-in near NITI Aayog. In a social media post, “Gyanesh Kumar is a thief, of course… But the one who taught him the ‘art of vote theft’ is the biggest thief of all,” the Congress wrote on X, adding that the party will keep fighting against these thieves.
“Today, the people of the country are realizing that their votes are being stolen and their freedom is being taken away. The Constitution was created through the hard work of Gandhi ji, Nehru ji, Ambedkar ji, and other leaders, but this government is determined to destroy it,” the social media post read.

ज्ञानेश कुमार तो चोर है ही..
लेकिन जिसने उसे ‘वोट चोरी’ का ज्ञान दिया, वो सबसे बड़े चोर हैं। इन चोरों के खिलाफ हम लड़ते रहेंगे।
आज देश की जनता जान रही है कि उनके वोट चोरी हो रहे हैं और उनकी आजादी ख़त्म हो रही है।
गांधी जी, नेहरू जी, अंबेडकर जी और बाकी नेताओं की मेहनत से संविधान बना था, लेकिन ये सरकार उसे ख़त्म करने पर तुली है।
